It still exists, also when running directly. Using the dialog frontend, but can also reproduce when selecting the readline frontend. > PS: I'm little confused about the perl warnings below (perl: warning: > Setting locale failed.) - did the package upgrade fail and maybe break > some of the debconf perl stuff? No, that seems unrelated. I've fixed those warnings and the problem still occurs. Output below from a run of needrestart by itself. What can I do to help debug this?
